He didn't get half of his face knocked off. 

I never said it did. I said "person hit with a metal pipe in the head so hard that side of his face looks like terminator's". And its not just the ear. The ear hangs off but its also a piece of his face hanging off as well.



QuoteHis ear was torn loose by the swing. It's a common injury, it hurts like a bitch, but it will NOT knock you out.

With the exception that he gets hit in the side of his head


And again, its amazing nobody gave a shit about him being hurt

QuoteBishop at the end of Alien 3 was not intended to be a droid. Ever. He's a human being.

As I said, "the movie did a very poor job inclining that hes human, I needed the filmmaker and the noveization to tell me he was". Im not saying he isnt



QuoteNot even the "more human" model had red blood. No android has ever been given red blood in the movies. Ever.

Because no other android had a task of convincing someone that hes not one. And again, as I said, "It was obvious that Ripley wuld first think hes another android since he looks like Bishop, they would then surely anticipate Ripley asking for some proof and the easiest way to recognize a synthetic is by white blood."

QuoteNot to mention his agonized plea in the assembly cut "I'M NOT A DROID!"

Just because he says so it proves anything? Lol

QuoteI always took his reaction to having an alien tearing him in half to be more about surprise/shock than pain.

Definitely not. THIS is shock


THIS is pain and agony

This is churching it up a bit.

As shown in the attack and injury, his shoulder takes most of the force of the blow, and the head injury is a glancing blow (for lack of a better word).

If he's a robot where the robot strength and reflexes to stop Ripley closing the gate in his face or dodge the guy with the wrench telegraphing his attack?

I've had my head cracked open when I was about 12 by a rock and got needles and stiches in my head, blood all over my face. I reacted more similarly to Alien 3 Bishop than to Aliens Bishop.

We dont see it well, but the tool stops on his head from what I see, plus as the injury shows, the pipe mustve hit him in the back of his head to tear out a considerable amount of skin

Ash havent dodged Parker's hits either

Ash was actively malfunctioning at the time. Not the best example.

Plus Parker wasn't shouting "f**kING ANDROID!!" while Ash was just standing there doing not very much.

Quotethe pipe mustve hit him in the back of his head to tear out a considerable amount of skin

If it hit the back of his head, the wound would be on the back of his head.  It obviously isn't.

Not the center back, but left back side. If he was hit in the ear or only brushed on the side, ear would be torn off and bleeding or the side of his face, skin wouldnt be hanging off from so far back

The wound is consistent with the attack.  Don't see an issue.

StrangeShape

Point is, he got his in the head and it barely affected him and it ripped part of his flesh off
